EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL
Manufacturer
BMW of North America, LLC
What Happened
The turn signals on your motorcycle are important for letting other drivers know when you're turning. The ones on your 2006-2017 BMW motorcycle might not be visible enough to other drivers.
Risk if Unfixed
If other drivers can't see your turn signals, they might not know when you're turning, which could lead to a crash.
Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will replace the turn signals with new, more visible ones at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
